About Marangu Route Kilimanjaro Climbing
The Marangu Route, known as the “Coca-Cola Route,” is the oldest and most popular path to summit Mount Kilimanjaro. It features hut accommodations, making it unique among routes. Trekkers experience diverse climates, from rainforest to alpine desert, over a 5- or 6-day trek. While it offers stunning views, the route has a higher failure rate due to limited acclimatization opportunities. The ascent and descent follow the same path, which can lead to crowding. Despite these challenges, it remains a favored choice for climbers seeking a classic Kilimanjaro experience.
